Our approach

Support built around
the person, not a routine.

Every person brings a different story, set of strengths and vision for their life. Those differences guide how we provide support.

Dignity is the starting point

Your voice.
Your preferences.
Your everyday life.

Serenity Village’s program emphasizes choice, independence and meaningful participation. We encourage residents to make decisions about their daily lives, from meals and activities to relationships, personal style and goals.

We adapt communication to the individual. That can mean conversation, pictures, gestures, signs or other ways of helping a person express what they want and understand their choices.

Family members and other supporters participate in ways that respect the person’s wishes, privacy and legal rights.

Individualized planning

One shared plan.
Individual possibilities.

We work alongside each resident’s planning team and regional center service coordinator. Support plans translate goals into clear, practical steps for everyday life.

Learning through everyday experiences

Skills are practiced at home and in the community. A shopping trip might become a chance to practice making choices or managing money. A meal can offer opportunities for communication, preparation and participation.

Positive behavioral support

Our approach looks at what behavior may communicate. Individualized strategies emphasize prevention, positive reinforcement, communication and useful replacement skills.

Reviewing progress together

Daily observations and regular planning-team reviews help identify what is working, where more support is needed and when a goal or strategy should change.

People are encouraged to ask questions, express concerns and take part in decisions about their support. Respect and personal rights are part of everyday care.

Let’s find the right support

A conversation is a good place to start.

For yourself, a family member or someone you support, we’re here to talk through the next step.
